No, really. It’s already time for another Cybils Awards season, and the application for judges is open until September 14th, so get cracking! There are TWO new pilot categories this year for you to explore–Board Books and Audiobooks–so if you write any kind of kidlit book reviews (even if you don’t have an official blog and write them on Goodreads, you might be eligible), throw your hat in the ring. Check out the official call for judges here, and read more about the judging process here if you’re not sure.
If you ask me and Tanita, though, you’ll get nothing but rave reviews, since we’ve taken part just about every year since the beginning. And this year there’s something more to celebrate: the Cybils Awards are officially a non-profit organization! It’s another big step on the road to doing more and more good in the world of kids, teens, and books, so CHEERS TO CYBILS!
